Bradley Beal Gets The Biggest Bag He Can
On the subject of star-shooting guards who haven’t won championships yet, Bradley Beal is one of the most intriguing free agents on the market.
With that said, Beal is merely 29. The clock ticks for him too, but a little more slowly than it does for Harden. If Beal wants to, he can afford his incumbent Wizards a little patience.
He’ll have every financial incentive to do so. Per the CBA, the Wizards can offer Beal substantially more than any other team. In fact, they can offer him a deal worth a total of $248 million dollars.
